  • Charles Porterfield Krauth: the American Chemnitz
    The 37th Annual Reformation Lectures Reformation Legacy on American Soil Bethany Lutheran College S. C. Ylvisaker Fine Arts Center Mankato, Minnesota October 28-29, 2004 Lecture Number Three: Charles Porterfield Krauth: The American Chemnitz The Rev. Prof. David Jay Webber Ternopil’, Ukraine Introduction C. F. W. Walther, the great nineteenth-century German-American churchman, has some- times been dubbed by his admirers “the American Luther.”1 While all comparisons of this nature have their limitations, there is a lot of truth in this appellation. Walther’s temperament, his lead- ership qualities, and especially his theological convictions would lend legitimacy to such a de- scription. Similarly, we would like to suggest that Charles Porterfield Krauth, in light of the unique gifts and abilities with which he was endowed, and in light of the thoroughness and balance of his mature theological work, can fittingly be styled “the American Chemnitz.” Krauth was in fact an avid student of the writings of the Second Martin, and he absorbed much from him in both form and substance. It is also quite apparent that the mature Krauth always attempted to follow a noticeably Chemnitzian, “Concordistic” approach in the fulfillment of his calling as a teacher of the church in nineteenth-century America. We will return to these thoughts in a little while. Be- fore that, though, we should spend some time in examining Krauth’s familial and ecclesiastical origins, and the historical context of his development as a confessor of God’s timeless truth. Krauth’s Origins In the words of Walther, Krauth was, without a doubt, the most eminent man in the English Lutheran Church of this country, a man of rare learning, at home no less in the old than in modern theology, and, what is of greatest import, whole-heartedly devoted to the pure doctrine of our Church, as he had learned to understand it, a noble man and without guile.2 But Krauth’s pathway to this kind of informed Confessionalism was not an easy one.

  • On This Rock
    On This Rock Twenty-Five Sermons & Addresses By Herman Amberg Preus Born in Kristiansand in southern Norway in 1825 Preus immigrated to America in 1851 upon acceptance of a Call to the Spring Prairie parish in southern Columbia County, Wisconsin. His entire ministry centered around the parish a short distance north of Madison, and, the Norwegian Synod. After the publication of Truth Unchanged, Unchanging by the Evangelical Lutheran Synod in 1979, which offered a sampling of the work of Ulrik Vilhelm Koren in English, work which I had headed up by invitation of former Bethany Lutheran College president B.W. Teigen, I began to work on material from the ministry of The Reverend President Herman Amberg Preus. He was first elected president at the 1862 Convention, succeeding Adolph Carl (A.C.) Preus [a cousin]. He had been president of the Norwegian Evangelical Lutheran Church in America from 1862 until his death in 1894, 32 years, one-half the life time of that church body. From the materials available to me the following has resulted. Because he was primarily a pastor, a preacher, I put these examples of his preaching first. To the best of my knowledge these are all the sermons and addresses of his that have ever been in my library, gathered from the Synod’s Maanedstidende (monthly) and Kirketidende (weekly periodical), from the Postil (book of sermons) it published, and from a booklet published in the parish in 1901 on the occasion of its 50th anniversary. The sermons are arranged here chronologically, beginning with Preus’ first sermon at Spring Prairie when he was a 26-year-old beginning his Ministry, to his last sermon before his death in 1894, when he was 69.

  • December 1987
    FOREWORD In this issue of the Quarterly the sermon by Pastor David Haeuser emphasizes that the proclamation of sin and grace must never be relegated to the back- ground, but must always be in the forefront of all of our church work. Rev. Haeuser is pastor of Christ Lutheran Church, Belle Gardens, California and also director of Project Christo Rey, a Hispanic mission in that area. The article by Pastor Herbert Larson on THE CENTEN- NIAL OF WALTHER'S DEATH is both interesting and timely. Pastor Larson shows from the history of the Norwegian Synod that there existed a warm and cordial relation- ship between Dr. Walther and the leaders of the Synod, and that we as a Synod are truly indebted to this man of God. Rev. Larson is pastor of Faith Lutheran Church, San Antonio, Texas. As the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) officially comes into existence on January 1, 1988, our readers will appreciate David Jay ~ebber'sresearch into the writings of some of the theologians of this new merger wherein he clearly shows that these teach- ings are un-Lutheran. David Webber was raised in the LCA and is presently a senior seminarian at Concordia Seminary, Fort Wayne, Indiana. An exegetical treatment of Romans 7: 14-25 by Professor Daniel Metzger explains the nature of the paradox in this section of Holy Scripture. Professor Metzger teaches religion and English at Bethany Lutheran College. He is currently on a sabbatical working on his doctorate. We also take this opportunity to wish our readers a blessed Epiphany and a truly happy and healthy New Year in the Name of the Christ-Child in whom alone we have lasting peace and joy.

  • Wyneken As Missionary: Mission in the Life & Ministry of Friedrich
    Let Christ Be Christ: Theology, Ethics & World Religions in the Two Kingdoms. Daniel N. Harmelink, ed. Huntington Beach, CA: Tentatio Press, 1999. 321-340. ©1999 Tentatio Press Wyneken as Missionary Mission in the Life & Ministry of Friedrich Conrad Dietrich Wyneken Robert E. Smith The mission theology of this pioneering nineteenth century figure of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod is documented and analyzed, emphasizing F.C.D. Wyneken’s masterful approach to planting churches among German immigrants in North America. If C.F.W. Walther was the mind of first generation Missouri Synod Lutheranism, Friedrich Conrad Dietrich Wyneken was its heart and soul. One hundred years after fellow Hannoverian Henry Muhlenberg brought together the pastors and congregations of colonial America, Wyneken gathered scattered German Protestants into confessional Lutheran congregations and forged them into a closely knit family of churches. His missionary experience, method and plan would influence American Lutheran missions for many years to come. His zeal for God's mission still burns brightly in the heart of Missouri's compassion for the lost. Aptly, he is called the "thunder after the lightning:"1 German Immigrants & the American Frontier Eager and strong, confident and bold, the young United States of America surged into the western lands that opened before it. Vast, ancient forests and wide prairies promised fertile lands. Trails were blazed, canals dug, roads built and railroads forged to hasten the path to a land that seemed like Eden. Warm California and cool Colorado called out to adventurers seeking silver and gold. On the endless frontier, settlers found a chance to do well in life.
